Our family tried to have a bonding time before the start of the school year. We decided to try a beach resort which we had not visited before, we tried asking some of our close friends, and they suggested the Sunset Beach Park Resort.

Going to Sunset Beach Park Resort is easy, you can take a jeep going to Sasa Wharf Barge or take a Bus going to Samal wherein the bus will still go to the Sasa wharf barge. We on the other hand took the jeep and get on the barge, our daughter likes it that way. When we arrive at Samal Island, Sunset Beach is just I think 1-2 kilometers left of Samal's wharf barge, we took a pedicab to go to the resort. When we arrive at Sunset Beach there were already plenty of people.

The place is nice, very nice and huge. Not as huge as hmmm Paradise beach resort, but compared to some affordable beaches in Samal this place is big. There are plenty of open and closed cottages to choose from, those friends of our's who suggested the place advised us to spend overnight because the place gets a lot livelier at night since there would be a live bands and fire dancers, but we went home at the afternoon since our little girl need to have a good night sleep.

There are lots of tenants/renters in the resort, there are store, souvenir shop, tattoo station, jet ski rental to name a few a few. If you ask me the place is great, the ambiance the beach. My only complain is their toilet, I think it has only one place for its common toilet and from our cottage its a bit far though, and for a resort that big I think an additional toilet at a different location would be nice. That being said I would still recommend this place to my friend that are looking for affordable beaches to go to.

My wifey department had an acquaintance at the Rainbow Breeze Beach Resort. Its easy to get there just take a jeep going to Sasa Barge Wharf or simply take a bus to Samal. Once you get to Samal, just drop by Phoenix gasoline station and take a Pedicab, tell the driver your destination which is the Rainbow Breeze Beach Resort, and one more thing tell the Pedicab driver to bring you inside the resort, its a long walk if you were drop off on the resort's entrance gate.

The place is nice, although the beach area is not that wide. There are plenty of cottages to choose from. There are open cottages and cottages with air-conditioned and non air-conditioned. The place though when we went their is not crowded, maybe because the place is not that know yet compared to other resorts. forgot to took pictures of the cottages with air-conditioned though.

Celebrating special occasions or company event would be great in this resort, since it has a function hall that can accommodate 70-80 persons for Php 3,500 only.

Im trying to scroll in my computer all pictures I have took that has not been posted in this site. I found a handful of those photos and hopefully I would be able to post them all here.

Here's one when our family went to church, and decided to have a snack. Usually we would go to Jolibee, because that's the first thing that would come out of my daughters mouth. But we decided to try another place to eat, so we went to Mama Maria's Pezzeria at Hotel Elena in Nova Tierra Village. We were intrigued before about Mama Maria's Pezzeria buy 1 take 1 pizza offering. We ordered the Hawaii pizza (since our daughter loves the pineapple) Family size which cost Php 355 (during that year - I'm not sure if prizes have change during that time) and a 1.5 liter softdrinks (Coke).

When our order was served, two of it since as I mentioned before its buy 1 take 1. Our daughter love it, she ate two slices and picked all the pineapple toppings for herself to eat hahahaha. The pizza taste good and for a price of Php 355 for 2 pizzas it was worth it.

Here a reminder though, you can't avail of the buy 1 take 1 offer if you ordered for a "take out".

I was planning to watch and take picture of the Kadayawan event, mainly the Indak2x and the Floral parade, but due to some events that happened here in some neighboring cities here in Mindanao, my family decided to skip the event this time around. So instead of the Indak2x and Floral parade, I went to SM Lanang Premier and take photos of the 10th Anniversary Bonsai Competition & Exhibit.

There were plenty of bonsai exhibit on the 2nd floor of SM, taking photos of all the bonsai put's a toll in my back though hahahaha, so here are all the photos I took from the exhibit.
